This weekend was the most amazing weekend! I can't believe in such a short time how things have changed. We left for camp on Friday afternoon. It's about 45 minutes to an hour away. Way out in the middle of nowhere. It's also right on a lake :)- We just hung out and did normal camp stuff (arts and crafts, chapel, diner, campfire, kiddo ran around with friends). Saturday new guy brought over his kids, and I got to meet them. Such nice respectful kids! The meeting went a billion times better then I thought it would. I think it helps I have a daughter. As a step child I totally was expecting them to act the way I would when I'd meet my dads girlfriends. But they were very nice and got on with my daughter like they had known her forever. Kiddo I think may have a mini crush on his son, where ever that kid went kiddo was 2 steps behind. It was cute.
I ended up getting baptized on Sunday, and new guy came to watch which was nice. He wasn't ready to take that step, but he did meet with a pastor and might be heading that way, which is awesome. That night he took kiddo and I (as well as his kids) to have dinner at his parents.
His parents own a large crop farm in the middle of Amish country. OMG this place was to die for! I felt like I had died and gone to heaven there. They have a cute perfect size farm house that looks like something you would see in better homes and gardens magazine. Everything was picture perfect, breath taking. They had a bunch of people over (friends and family). Kiddo struck up a friendship with a group of little Amish girls :)- It was the cutest thing i've ever seen. His mother is an amazing cook and hostess. Both of his parents were awesome to kiddo and I. They treated us as family and were so welcoming. After dinner his dad took some of the kids on a twilight "hay" ride around the farm. I was a dream come true.
I could of stayed there forever. And his mom, wow is all I can say. I've never had an issue with boyfriends parents liking me, but i've never had someone like me so much that I felt so welcomed and like I had been in the family forever. She was so sweet, and I had a blast chatting with her. They seem really hands on with his kids and were so loving with mine. At one point his mom said something like I hope this one is finally it, I want more grandkids. My parents are so not hands on with my daughter.
So it was the best weekend i've had in a really long time.
